Designers of Mamie's Wardrobe Began by Making Doll Clothing By GAY PAULEY i the President was head , of United Press Correspondent j SHAPE, Paris. New York (U.R) The moral "We're frequently startled to of our story for today is-encour- j see a picture of Mrs. Eisenhower age your small daughter when she starts making doll clothes. This may not help her grow up to be president. But it may in a hat we made three years ago," said a Victor spokesman. Mollie Parnis, who makes many of Mrs. Eisenhower s day- help her grow up to be designer j time and afternoon costumes, is for a president's wife. tne one designer who didn't sew Two of the three women re-; tr cnuanooa. sponsible for most of Mrs. Dwight D. Eisenhower's inaugur al wardrobe began their careers at the doll clothes stage. Take Mrs. Nettie Rosenstein, who made Mrs. Eisenhower's pink peau de soie ball gown for the first inaugural in 1952 and "I couldn't even sketch when I began in this business," said the designer. When she was graduated from high school, she went to work as a saleswoman for a blouse manufacturer. She and her husband, Leon Living ston, a fabrics expert, opened the yellow lace for this year's ! her dress manufacturing firm event. "I've been sewing just about since I can remember," said Mrs. Rosenstein. "First for dolls . .". then myself . . . then friends . . . and finally in business for myself." She started with a re tail dress shop but now runs a wholesale firm on seventh ave nue. Designed For 30 Yean Mrs. Rosenstein, best known in the fashion industry for her knack with the simple .black dress, has been a designer for 30 years. Mrs. Eisenhower was a custo mer even before she became mis tress of the White House. Now, Mrs. Rosenstein makes many of Mamie's "important occasion" gowns. The inaugural ball dress in 1952 was purchased through Nieman - Marcus, Dallas; this year's, through Bonwit - Teller, New York, with Mrs. Rosen stein first sending sketches and material samples to the White House. Sally Victor, who designed the violet taffetta cloche Mrs. Eisen hower selected for the inaugural parade, has been "shaping bits of material into things" since childhood. Her formal career began when she was 18; she went to work as a stock girl in Macy's mil linery department. In 1934 she opened her own wholesale and retail shop in New York, and in 1943 became the first milliner to receive the American fashion critics' "Winnie" award. Couldn't Even Sketch Through mutual friends, Mrs. Victor met Mrs. Eisenhower and began designing for her while in 1933. Mrs. Eisenhower ordered her first Parnis clothes for the 1952 campaign. She purchased them through Garfinkel's, Washing ton. None of the designers wanted to discuss the amount the first lady spends on clothes.
